I’m not the biggest fan of music festivals. I just don’t have the energy or patience to stand amongst thousands of screaming, often drugged out people for 10 to 12 hours in hot, humid weather. That’s why I’ve never really been interested in going to something like Lollapalooza as it’s just not my scene. But what irritates me is that these festivals are often the only time I might be able to see a band that I really love. So what’s a fella supposed to do??

Well, Coachella has just the answer for people like me. The insanely popular music festival is streaming the entire festival on three separate YouTube channels, which you can see below. You’ll be able to catch such acts as Blur, The Stone Roses, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and more from the comfort of your own couch (and not to mention the comfort of air conditioning, cheap beer, and easily accessible bathrooms).

Hailing from Savannah, Georgia, Baroness is a four-piece group that plays a mixture of sludge and melodic metal with traces of prog and a sprinkle of punk. With elements of these genres, you KNOW that I was intrigued to listen to their latest offering. After all, they’ve toured with Metallica, Opeth, Clutch, Mastodon, and many more influential, fantastic artists. Add to this the fact that both Red and Blue are fascinating, incredible albums, and I was all set to sit back and delve into the two-disc set that is Yellow & Green. So, was I satisfied or left wanting? READ MORE
